Farming Smarter is a policy governed, non-profit organization with by-laws under the Alberta Societies Act. It is also a Canadian Charity registered under Canada Revenue Agency. Our projects and programs access funds from numerous sources including research grants, foundations, industry, partners, and all levels of government.

The Farming Smarter Board of Directors operate under the Carver method of policy governance and take fiscal responsibility for the organization. The Farming Smarter by-laws state we must have, “no less than half of the Board being primary producers.” Currently, our board is more than 50% farmers.
